Chapter 45: Deliberate Framing

In the days after taking the pills, Jinghan's health got better and better. Siyou still brought her meals as usual that day.

"Xiao Jinghan, it's time for lunch."

Si You knocked on the door, but there was no response for a long time. When she was about to open the door, Jinghan opened the door one step ahead of her.

"Auntie, you're here." She greeted him with a smile and took the meal from Si You's hand.

"Little Jinghan's complexion is getting better day by day." Si You sighed.

"Thanks to the master's medicine, I was able to recover so quickly."

Speaking of the master, I have never seen him again since that day.

After lunch, Jinghan took a walk in the small garden outside the palace to eat.

The boy waiting beside Yi Yao ran in anxiously: "Jinghan, are you there?"

Jinghan turned around and the boy ran towards her: "I'm here."

"I have something important to do now. Please help me return these books to the library." The boy handed her several thick volumes of books.

"okay."

These books are heavy, and they are all filled with secrets of cultivation techniques. Jinghan didn't think much and walked towards the library with these books. There is a long distance between the Cangshuge Pavilion and Changqing Hall, and there are many large and small palaces and pavilions passing by in the middle. On weekdays, he spends the most time in Changqing Palace and the Academy, and doesn't pay attention to other palaces at all.

"It turns out that the fairy world is so big."

As she walked and watched, she suddenly saw a familiar figure.

"Isn't this Mining? When was her confinement lifted?"

Jinghan called her name from behind her, but she seemed not to hear and continued to ignore it.

"Mining, why are you ignoring me?"

Jinghan kept up with Mining all the way, but was inexplicably led off the route by her, and the distance between the library and the library became longer and longer.

Mining walked to a hidden woods and stopped, looking around, while Jinghan hid behind a bush and remained silent. She gently pushed aside the bushes, and a man in black appeared in front of Mining and was talking to her.

Is there anything else Mining is hiding from me? Jinghan thought and continued to watch them.

"Did you steal what I wanted?" The man in black said calmly. He wore a black cloak, covering his face with only two eyes exposed.

Mining nodded and said, "Everything you want is here."

She waved her sleeves, and four immortal weapons were arranged and floated in the air.

Those are the four artifacts in the fairy world. Each artifact can play a huge role as long as it is used properly. How could Mining steal the artifact? Or maybe, it wasn't Mining at all, it was someone using her identity to do something detrimental to the fairy world. Then something serious was going on, and she had to report it to her master immediately.

Jinghan was about to retreat, but the book fell to the ground and made a sound.

The man in black turned to look at her hidden place: "No, there is someone."

Fake Mining also responded to the call, but Jinghan was afraid of being discovered, so she pretended to be a cat and meowed.

"It turns out to be a cat." Ji Mining turned around and expressed that she was shocked, but the man in black remained silent.

After Jinghan sorted out the books, she turned around and found that the fake Mining and the man in black who were there had disappeared. She looked around. Little did she know that the fake Mining and the man in black appeared behind her.

Jinghan thought the two of them had left, so she stood up with a long breath, when someone suddenly tapped her on the shoulder. She froze on the spot, slowly turning around and the two of them stood behind her.

The man in black knocked Jinghan unconscious, and her books fell to the floor as she passed out.

"How to deal with it?" Ji Mining looked at the man in black.

"This is the fairy world. Risking your life to kill a fairy will only disrupt our plans. It's better to put the blame on her."

"You mean to blame her for the loss of the artifact?"

"Exactly."

"I understand." Ji Mining disappeared beside the man in black.

When Jinghan came to her senses, she was surrounded by heavenly soldiers and generals.

"This is what you are doing?"

"Fairy Jinghan, please come with us."

"Why?"

"We have reason to suspect that the loss of the artifact is inseparable from you." Jing Han looked confused. Wasn't she knocked unconscious by the man in black? I don’t know what happened next. Why was he suspected of stealing the artifact as soon as he woke up?

She was escorted to Xu Jie, the most respected person. The crime of stealing a divine weapon was not a small one, and it needed to be determined by her senior position.

"Your Majesty, the Immortal has brought you here." Jing Han was escorted to the ground and knelt down.

Jing Han defended: "I really didn't steal the artifact?"

Xu Jie slowly turned around and stared at her: "Isn't it you? A palace maid who was passing by saw you entering the Artifact Institute."

"The Artifact Institute? I don't even know where it is."

"Then what are these books of yours?" Xu Jie pointed to the books she was brought with by the heavenly soldiers and generals.

"These are to be sent to the library."

"The artifact house is near the library. You went to the library to cover up the fact that you stole the artifact."

"not like this."

If I were to follow Mining into the woods and break up her deal with the man in black, wouldn't it be implicating Mining.

"It seems you have admitted it." Xu Jie became more confident when he saw her expression.

"I really didn't steal the artifact." No matter how Jinghan explained it, she couldn't argue anymore.
